I enjoyed that post. Research is a key element. I have met men whose brachytherapy surgeons have left much to be desired. The consequence of that for the brachytherapy patient has sometimes been permanent anal incontinence. The selection of the man who irradiates you is just as important as your choice of scalpel operator. If your biopsy is a butcher job, you are not going to permit that same happy hacker to deprostatize you, are you?
